George and Paul

I agree that George seemed uncomfortable in those "Anthology" interviews whenever Paul was present with him.

In the Scorsese doc. on George, you even see some OTHER stuff that you didn't see in "Anthology", like Paul walking into a room and apparently seeing George for the first time in person in quite some time (at that time), and George is seated, strumming on a guitar. Paul walks in, wearing a black, heavy leather jacket (Paul and Linda, as well as George , had been supposedly devout vegans for many years). Paul seems touched to see George, and leans down to hug the seated George (who doesn't get up). George sort of gives a half hug back with one arm (Paul hugs him with both arms) and, with the one arm still on Paul's shoulder, he pushes Paul back a bit, and looks him up and down and then says, "Ah. So, this is the vegetarian leather, huh?" . George seems a tad nasty in his tone, too, like he's not really kidding. Paul sort of seems disappointed and embarrassed, he half chuckles. It was as though Paul may have been thinking, "Oh wow, first time he sees me in forever, and we're going to have a row right away. Great reunion comment, George." (Of course, George had a point. And he is legendary for speaking his mind and hurting people's feelings being brutally honest.)

Then, throughout the "Anthology", whenever George and Paul are on camera together, George seems very uncomfortable. There is one interview in the special features section where they are in Abbey Road studio with George Martin. Martin and Paul had selected some classic track takes to listen to on camera for the doc. cameras. (For the record, I think George Martin always favored Paul a bit.). They choose "Golden Slumbers", in raw form, with only Paul and his piano. And when Martin, asks, on camera, who all is doing what on this track, George does a half annoyed, sarcastic laugh, and says, "Doesn't sound like anybody else is on it!", like he was annoyed that Martin and Paul basically chose a solo McCartney tune for this occasion. Then, he goes into a subtle series of jabs about Paul wanting to play all the roles and instruments on his own songs. They hear another instrument come in, and Martin says, "Now who's playing this?", and George says, looking quite annoyed, "HE is." pointing at Paul without looking at him. There are many other examples.

Also, remember that, post-Beatles-break-up, George was more on John's side, and even appeared on John's "Imagine" album, and they both would take verbal swipes at Paul. Later, George took playful swipes at Paul at the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony (which Paul did not attend).

I agree, I don't think George liked Paul very much at all.

You he to remember that George and Paul had been close friends since they'd been in school, and he grew to present (and rightfully so) the way he was treated in the band, especially by Paul. From 67/68 onwards, Paul came into.the studio with all his songs fully formed in his head, and instead of letting the others contribute, he just told them what and how to play. You can see it a bit in the film, and George talked about it a lot in interviews. Couple that with things like Paul talking to the press about taking acid after having it 2 or 3 times (vs John and George's many, many trips), his refusal to hold back the release of "McCartney" for "Abbey Road", his announcements that the band had broken up (after begging the others not to do that when they had already quit!), the non-stop lawsuits, the teasing of a Beatles reunion every time he was promoting one of his own projects, and the lawsuit in the 80s which came about when Yoko, George and Ringo found out Paul had negotiated a contract with EMI to get more royalties for himself than the others, and you can see why. (The 80s lawsuit is the reason Macca didn't show up at the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame induction)

Paul always acted like George was a kid instead of being "only nine months younger than him".

George had many, many close friends who loved and respected him. He didn't need Paul constantly being such a dick. He said more than once he'd happily work with John and Ringo again, but would never be in a band again with Paul. He even refused to let a third song from Anthology (supposedly a McCartney/Harrison composition) be released.

That said, I think they made their peace before George died, or George at least let it all go as not to have that karmic baggage on himself.

I believe they became very close again after Linda died & George was actually staying at Pauls home when he himself passed away.
